The move onto land was predicated by a law signed in 2019 that allowed for riverboat casinos to relocate landside. The Aurora development included the transfer of certain parcels of land from the city, and up to $50 million of the project will be funded by the city through a new bond issuance. 'Our tremendous and long-lasting partnership with the City of Aurora has provided an opportunity to relocate our property to an ideal location that will significantly improve our offerings and further our positive economic impact on the community.' 'We are thrilled to soon begin construction on a new, state-of-the-art Hollywood Casino Aurora,' said Jay Snowden, CEO and President of PENN Entertainment. The Company expects to create 700 construction jobs and 700 permanent jobs at the new facility, nearly doubling the Company’s current team members in Aurora. The best-in-class facility will feature roughly 1,200 gaming positions, approximately 220 guest rooms, a retail sportsbook, outdoor entertainment area, full-service spa, high-quality bars and restaurants, an approximately 12,000 square foot event center with meeting areas and approximately 1,700 parking spaces.

The $360 million regional destination is being developed adjacent to the Chicago Premium Outlets, which attracts over eight million visitors annually, and is conveniently located near Interstate 88 in Aurora. The entirely new land-based casino, hotel and entertainment facility will replace the Company’s nearby riverboat casino when completed.

I have won over 5k in a session at that game.WYOMISSING, Pa. Prob like $140 a night but it might be more expensive this weekend because i think theres a soccer game at livestrong stadium nearby.Įdit: If you play PLO, the 2/5 PLO games are the nuts. Send me a PM if you wanna meet up.Īs far as hotels, theres a hampton inn nearby but i dont know about rates. If you get there at like 9pm youll be waiting a good hour for a seat, imo. If you dont want to wait, I suggest you try to get there before 5 PM. The 20/40 LHE runs from Thursday night into Saturday a lot of the time. On weekends you will most likely find a handful of 1/3 NL, a few 2/5 NL and maybe some 5/5 and 5/10 NL mixed in. Can anyone tell me what the action has been like on the weekends lately? How long is the wait to get a seat? Any advice on what hotel to stay at? Anything else I should know?Īction there has been sick. I'm thinking of making the 3 hour drive to k.c.
